I Paint with acrylics & oils, since 1989, when I studied Painting at VW School of Painting, with Vibul Wonprasat, Teacher/Artist/Owner.

I was a Curator at Oasis Gallery in Marquette Michigan 2010-2012. As a Featured Artist @ TheOasis, my art show was entitled "Dreaming". My paintings were also on exhibit @"The Curators Show 2011" & "Snapshots"; HolidaySale.
In 2015, I painted 20 new paintings using the theme of "Scenes from My Life." Most have adapted twists & people in them. I use colorful paint schemes & both acrylic & oil paint.
In some paintings there is a resemblance to a famous person, which is coincidental & paranormal, & very interesting...I've found this phenomenon when painting using an abstract scrunch-blot method as well. Faces appear in the paint formations; it is mysterious!
I enjoy traveling & taking pictures to remember/document & as Art. In 2015, I took a Road Trip to sightsee & photograph the beautiful scenery along the West Coast in Oregon & Malibu, & at Yellowstone National Park, & more.
Aquarius Art Gallery.Net U.P. Postcard Sets are available as a School Fundraising item! I worked as a Fundraising Sales Representative in Los Angeles in the past, which sparked this great business idea!
